Family Literacy Night
Rahway Public Schools
Franklin Elementary School in Rahway held its first Family Literacy Night of the school year on Wednesday, October 12, 2022. The focus of this night was to celebrate Hispanic Heritage while engaging families in literacy activities. The activities were broken into four separate rotations. Families rotated through stations that consisted of: creating bookmarks, going on a scavenger hunt while shopping at the Scholastic Bookfair, playing Kahoot, and listening to Franklin School’s very own author, Lisa Crespo, read her published book titled; Why Are My Humans Home Today? After families finished rotating through the activities they were treated to a pizza party, where prize baskets were raffled off!
This wonderful event was organized by the following Franklin Leaders: Susan Farrar, Lindsey Barret, Michele Anastos, Edwina Suarez, Diana Arboleda, Doris Jones, Komal Patel, Susan Dilollo, Kym Adams, and Shavon Smith-Simons. Of course, this event would not have been possible without the support of Franklin School’s amazing Principal, Dr. Aleya Shoieb. Franklin Leaders are excited to plan the next Family Literacy Night, which will be held in the winter.
